In a certain restaurant in Xuedou, several women in luxurious clothes were sitting in a box by the window, drinking hot wine.
In Xuedu, it is not strange at all for women to drink alcohol, it is a norm.
After all, in this cold place, drinking some wine can ward off the cold.
"Have you heard about it? A Snowman brand clothing store recently opened in Xuedu?" a woman asked.
"What snowman clothing store? What does it do?" a woman asked.
"I heard they sell a kind of down jacket, and my sister-in-law is a VIP there."
“What is a down jacket made of?”
"The clothes are made of feathers. They are not only soft, but also very comfortable and warm to wear."
"Are there any clothes like this?" Someone asked curiously, "Let's go take a look later?"
"Okay, but I heard that their clothes cost one hundred taels of silver each."
"What clothes are so expensive?"
"I don't know. Anyway, there are quite a lot of people buying them. They are all wealthy businessmen and princes and nobles."
While everyone was discussing, a woman pointed to the street outside the window: "Look, that person is wearing a down jacket."
Everyone looked towards the street and saw a woman wearing a cheongsam-style down jacket. This style was designed by Li Qi himself.
He knew that this style would definitely become a hit, and sure enough, there was an endless stream of people buying cheongsam styles during this period.
Everyone stared at the woman on the street for a long time, and one of them couldn't help but said: "I want this dress too!"
As she said that, she stood up impatiently: "Where is that store?"
…
Tang Yun initially felt that Li Qi's price was too high and was afraid that no one would buy it.
What she didn't expect was that after only three days of opening, there were already more than one person coming to buy down jackets.
There were dozens of people who made reservations, and some of them couldn't wait and took away all the ready-made goods in the store.
Not only that, even the demand for feathers in Snow City is somewhat in short supply, and they have even contacted some businessmen and spent a lot of money to send people to the surrounding areas to collect feathers.
The inn where they stayed had been completely transformed into a small processing factory.
Li Qi gave the shopkeeper money and asked them all to vacate the place.
Today's "hot spring house" can be said to be in full swing, with feathers flying everywhere.
Li Qi saw that down jackets were so easy to sell, so he came up with a plan and started making mink fur clothes, using mink fur as the style of down jackets.
Simply, in the end, Li Qi directly rented a three-story inn and turned it into a "snowman specialty store"!
Down jackets and mink are sold on the first floor, while various linings and VIP service areas are sold on the second floor.
After this, more than a month passed in a blink of an eye, and colorful clothes were flying all over the street.
Many people have a snowman embroidered on their clothes.
Snowman brand clothes became an instant hit!
…
Nalanjin went to the palace to visit his mother as usual. He got on a carriage and arrived at his mother's palace. Before he entered, he heard a noise inside, as if they were discussing something.
When he walked in, he saw all the concubines in the harem.
"My son, I have come to visit my mother." Nalan Jin saluted.
"Jin'er is here?"
Nalanjin's queen mother is a charming-looking woman, about forty years old.
"Mother, what are you doing?" Nalanjin couldn't help but ask.
At this time, a sharp-eyed concubine stared at Nalan Jin's clothes and said: "Fourteenth Prince, the clothes you are wearing..."
"Oh, this is called a down jacket. A friend of mine is making this kind of clothing..."
Before he finished speaking, several concubines gathered around him, touching and looking at him.
"Your Majesty, what I'm talking about is this down jacket, the Snowman brand down jacket. This kind of clothing is now popular all over the snow." A concubine said.
Then many people came over one after another. Finally, Nalan Jin couldn't bear it anymore, so he took off his clothes and handed them to them for study.
This research left Nalan Jin in the cold. Without a down jacket, he huddled next to the stove in the cold.
"Jin'er, you said this dress was made by your friend?" Nalan Jin's mother asked.
"Yes. What's wrong, Queen Mother?"
"Can you let him bring some to the palace?"
"Ah?" Nalanjin was stunned.
"Everyone is very interested in this down jacket."
"Okay, I'll ask him to bring some to the palace later."
"Then there's Lao Jin'er."
"Mother, you're welcome."
Nalan Jin was a little depressed. After finally entering the palace, he didn't even take a sip of water. Instead, he was demolished and looked for someone else.
After leaving the palace, Nalan Jin took a carriage to find Li Qi.
When passing by a "Snowman Brand Store", he spotted Li Qi's figure, so he quickly asked the groom to stop the car.
After jumping out of the car, he saw Li Qi holding a wooden board at the door not far away, which read: "Snowman brand discount is a big deal. 10% off for purchases over three hundred taels of silver. The more you buy, the more you earn."
"Don't miss it if you're passing by!" Li Qi shouted at the top of his lungs, "There are discounts throughout the store, lots of discounts, and lots of gifts! You can get a free exquisite gift when you enter the store!"
Seeing Li Qi shouting there, Nalan Jin was a little confused and walked over slowly.
"Fourteenth Master?" Li Qi couldn't help but asked when he saw Nalan Jin, "Why is the Fourteenth Master here?"
"Brother Li, what are you doing?"
"Soliciting."
"Soliciting?" Nalanjin was a bit dumbfounded, "I've only heard of brothels soliciting clients, but I've never seen a cloth shop soliciting clients."
"Master Fourteen doesn't know something. This is not a cloth shop, but a clothes shop." Li Qi said and called a clerk over and handed him the wooden sign in his hand. "Have you memorized all the words I shouted just now?
"
The waiter nodded: "Master, take note of everything."
"Well, then I'll leave this to you. Work harder and I'll give you a bonus later." Li Qi said.
"Okay, boss!"
After the explanation, Li Qi took Nalan Jin into the clothing store.
This was the first time Nalan Jin came to Li Qi's store. As soon as he entered and saw the layout and decoration inside, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Especially when he saw those wooden models, he couldn't help but be curious and went over to take a look.
"Are these hanging clothes for sale?" Nalanjin asked.
Li Qi nodded: "Yes, I only sell ready-made clothes and customization."
Nalan Jin smiled and shook his head: "Brother Li is really different from ordinary people."
"In this business, we have to use one word: strange!" Li Qi said, "It can't be static."
"That makes sense." Nalanjin smiled.
"Why did Master Fourteen come to my place?" Li Qi asked.
Nalan Jin sighed and said: "Brother Li, I came here to invite you to the palace."
"Enter the palace?" Li Qi was stunned.
Nalan Jin said: "Yes. My mother seems to be very interested in Brother Li's down jacket, so she wants Brother Li to bring some clothes into the palace."
Li Qi's eyes lit up: "No problem!"
Damn it, this young master was still thinking of holding a sales meeting, but unexpectedly, it was delivered to my door!
